Arusha, 26 September 2025:<\/em><\/strong> The African Court on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights (AfCHPR) and the East African Law Society (EALS) have pledged to deepen their collaboration to advance access to justice and strengthen the protection of human and peoples\u2019 rights across the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The commitment was made on Friday during a courtesy visit by the EALS led by its President Mr. Ramadhan Abubakar and his 11-member delegation to the Court, where they were received by the President of the Court, Hon. Justice Modibo Sacko, the Vice President, Hon. Justice Chafika Bensaoula, the Deputy Registrar Ms Grace Wakio Kakai and other senior officials. The EALS delegation comprised the leadership of Bar Associations from nine jurisdictions in East Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In wide-ranging discussions, both sides explored concrete avenues of engagement, including awareness-raising initiatives, legal aid and pro-bono support, training and advocacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his remarks, Hon. Justice Sacko welcomed the EALS visit, noting that the expertise of its members is vital in advancing the Court\u2019s mandate. He emphasized that such professional engagement is important as the Court\u2019s jurisprudence has touched on all spheres of life and must be respected, stressing that the institution exists because of the litigants who turn to it for justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Court exists because there are litigants. Should we wait until one day when there are no violations? Let us work together, drawing on your expertise as lawyers and advocates, to protect human and peoples\u2019 rights. Given that the African Union depends on the contributions of our States, taxes paid by all Africans, everybody has a responsibility to make the dream of the African Court the dream of every African. On behalf of the Judges and the entire Court, I make this request: help us to help Africans,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He further called on the Society to play an active role in mobilizing its members to join the Court\u2019s roster of counsel under its Legal Aid scheme and to act as ambassadors in their countries by encouraging Member States to ratify the Protocol establishing the Court and maintain or deposit the Declaration under Article 34(6) of the Protocol, allowing individuals and NGOs direct access to the Court. By doing so, the EALS will be providing its representation and expertise to African citizens who need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turning to the Court\u2019s 20th<\/sup> Anniversary to be marked throughout next year, Honourable Justice Sacko described it as a milestone that should inspire greater recognition of the Court\u2019s achievements and collective support for its mandate. He urged the EALS to support the Court in this commemoration and to develop initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response, EALS President Mr. Abubakar assured the Court of the Society\u2019s commitment to a sustained partnership, stressing that the visit is not symbolic but the beginning of a structured, long-term collaboration through which EALS will strengthen outreach, enrich the Court\u2019s jurisprudence and support its role in protecting human and peoples\u2019 rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs EALS we want to be part of this Court, part of its jurisprudence and participate for the service of our society. Count on us to support the Court, not just through a one-off engagement, but through continuous collaboration that strengthens its functions and impact,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Ramadhan pledged to mobilize EALS\u2019s 42,000 members and proposed a joint think-tank with the Court to address challenges such as state withdrawals and to develop practical strategies that safeguard its accessibility as a continental guardian of human and peoples’ rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The courtesy visit marks an important step in fostering stronger ties between the Court and legal practitioners across East Africa, as both sides expressed their commitment to continue the dialogue and identify concrete areas of joint work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
